An evening of music ranging from classical to traditional to contemporary and featuring no less than 11 ensembles including orchestras, concert bands, rock band, Big Band and so much more, including a breath-taking finale! Approximately 450 of Midlothian’s most talented music pupils, with the support of 26 music instructors and teachers, offer you a fantastic evening of entertainment – you will not be disappointed!

Midlothian Council is committed to the teaching and playing of music within our schools and communities. We recognise the many benefits to young people and by extension to our communities. The discipline required to learn, rehearse and play in public is a tool that will serve these young people well as they progress into adulthood.

Midlothian schools continue to strengthen links with their local communities and with friends and colleagues further afield, using the wonderful world of music as the common language. This concert is the culmination of a great deal of hard work and rehearsal and audience members will be captivated by this performance.

Now it is time to sit back, relax and enjoy a wonderful of evening music!
